My favorite place for great food, the ambience is nice. The staff is very welcoming. Food is always amazing. The people that you sit with or engage with are always typically nice. I’ll try this place time and time again.

The soup was bland, the salad was decent, the service was poor(I didn’t get the rice that came with my meal), the waiter described the sapporo beer as a glass but it came in a comically oversized bottle, the food lacked seasoning and flavor. I would recommend some options of dipping sauces.

I absolutely loved it! While we were at the bar, waiting for our table, the owner came over and treated us to discounted drinks (get the Mai-Tai ) The scallops were cooked to perfection, and the filet mignon was a melt-in-your-mouth experience, seriously. The service was on point, and the overall vibe was great. Can’t wait to visit again

I really enjoyed the waiters service and atmosphere for a small birthday dinner. The dinner was great, however the valet was very rude and did not give my friend her change but we overall enjoyed our night.

It’s been a long time since I visited Ron of Japan. The restaurant is very dark and maybe that’s actually a good thing. I’m afraid of what it looks like with the lights on. The food was OK, my issue is that the tables are small as well as the plates. My biggest issue was how much oil they cook with. I had to drain my plate at least three times to remove the excessive oil used for everything. Also the ventilation is poor, so your going to smell really bad after dinner. It used to be a hot spot in its day but not anymore.

I would not recommend for the price. I have had way better Japanese style food. The rice was very underwhelming for flavor and creativity. The meat was lacking flavor and needed the sauce.The scallops were cooked well but no flavor. I liked the sauce both the cream sauce on the shrimp and the dipping sauce. The soup was not good it tasted like it was from a can. The sake bombs we’re good and the staff was great. In the pic it’s includes calamari and king crab but I didn’t not get to try those.

Food was great! Service was decent. Servers should speak and understand English better and they could add a little entertainment with dinner. I’ve been to better habachi restaurants at a cheaper price.
